NRPE problems

I'm running nrpe to remotely monitor local services on a fedora core 1
machine, but I keep getting these errors:

Mar 31 16:00:52 fedora xinetd[572]: Deactivating service nrpe due to
excessive incoming connections.  Restarting in 30 seconds.

On the Nagios server it says:

Connection refused by host

Any ideas what might be wrong?

Here's the xinetd configuration:

# more /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe
# default: on
# description: NRPE
service nrpe
{
        flags           = REUSE
        socket_type     = stream
        user            = nagios
        group           = nagios
        server          = /usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe
        server_args     = -c /usr/local/nagios/nrpe.cfg -i
        wait            = yes
        protocol        = tcp
        log_on_failure  += USERID
        disable         = no
        only_from       = 10.128.52.103
}
